We’re absolutely beside ourselves with how brilliantly Tender is going in the Viewster Online Film Festival. We are at 93% on the ‘hotscore’ which is a ranking mechanism, meaning we are in the top 7% of films by popular vote. Up against hundreds of European films with huge audiences, we just couldn’t be happier.

The thing is, we need to have a hotscore of 98% to get through to the finals!! We really need your help with only 4 days left to go and the competition about to get fierce. Please help support us, Tender fans, by clicking the ‘like’ button after you have watched the film. You also need to vote for 2 other films for the vote to count. Click HERE to watch the film.

Please also leave a comment on the page as to what you thought of the film so we can hear all your feedback!

I’m sure you’ve heard of the Sundance Film Festival, it’s one of the largest indie film festivals in the US, chaired by legendary actor Robert Redford.

The initial aim of the festival was to showcase American films, which garnered unprecedented support from Hollywood and contributed to the festival’s significant success. Just a few filmmakers who’ve got their break here are Kevin Smith, Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino, Steven Soderbergh, Darren Aronofsky, and Jim Jarmusch.

The festival began as very low-profile, attracting small-budget independent filmmakers but has grown to a media extravaganza for Hollywood celebrity actors and paparazzi. If you can get to this one, we at Tender the Film can guarantee it will be worth it! Starts January 17th!!

The highlight of the International Film Festival of Kerala (IFFK) is the competition section for Asian, African, and Latin American countries. It’s limited to just 14 films in this section, and the IFFK tends to attract a well-read and serious audience so go with your thinking hat on. There’s also a section for Malayalam cinema which consists of local Kerala films shot in the Malayalam language.

If you do manage to attend you’ll be treated to Contemporary World Cinema, Retrospectives of Major filmmakers, Homage and Tributes, Contemporary Indian Cinema, Short films and documentaries. In addition to the film competition, there is also a market and seminars on important issues relating to the industry.
The Kerala festival is known for its public support, and screens in some unlikely places, including for residents of a jail, a juvenile home (Poojappura Central Jail, Thiruvananthapuram) and a poor home (Sri Chitra Poor Home).
